Song and tune sessions still survive as do barn dances. Mini-festivals like Swinton and the Open Door in Oldham, and I guess lots of others, clearly do well. Has anyone tried putting a song session, a tune session, a folk club and a barn dance in the same building on the same night on a regular (once a month?) basis and did it work? |
